<h4><a name = "tag_002_001_178">&nbsp;</a>NAME</h4><blockquote>
w - pointer page for functions with <i>w</i> prefix
</blockquote><h4><a name = "tag_002_001_179">&nbsp;</a>DESCRIPTION</h4><blockquote>
Most uses of the <i>w</i> prefix indicate that a Curses function takes a
<i>win</i>
argument that specifies the affected window.
(The corresponding functions without the <i>w</i> prefix operate on the current
window.)
The
<i><a href="wunctrl.html">wunctrl()</a></i>
function is an exception to this rule and has an entry under its own name.
<p>
The <i>w</i> functions are discussed together with the corresponding functions
without the <i>w</i> prefix.  They are found on the following entries:
